Foolproof Super Banana Cake Recipes

BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 9X13 baking pan with non stick cooking spray or grease and flour the pan.
• Mix the milik and lemon juice together and set aside.
• With a hand held mixer or stand up mixer combine the butter and both of the sugars until well combined. Add in the eggs one at a time. Then add in the vanilla extract. Mix on high spreed until the mixture is light and fluffy.
• Then mix in the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium size bowl. Gradually add the flour mixture and milk mixture to the butter mix. Alternate adding each one in until both are fully added.
• Gently stir in the mashed bananas.
• Pour the mixture into the 9X13 pan.
• Baked for 40-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Watch closely as baking times vary.
• Remove the oven and place the cake on a wire rack to cool completely.
• While the cake is cooling, create the frosting. Beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time and mix in between each cup until the frosting is the thickness that you desire. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• Spread the cream cheese frosting over the cake, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and then slice, serve and enjoy!

MOIST BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°F. Grease and flour a 9 x 13 pan.
• In a small bowl, mix mashed bananas with the lemon juice; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream 3/4 cup butter and 2 cups sugar until light and fluffy; about 3 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla.
• Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour, until just combined. Stir in mashed bananas.
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for 60-75 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. This could take longer than 75 minutes depending on your oven.
• Remove from oven and place directly into the freezer for 45 minutes. This will make the cake extremely moist.
• While the cake rests in the freezer, make the frosting. Beat the butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add in 1 teaspoon vanilla and mix until incorporated.
• Add powdered sugar and beat on low speed until combined, then on high speed until frosting is smooth.
• Spread over cooled cake. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
